			<a class="head1" href="#bktop" name="intro">Introduction</a>
			<p>AppsTML Multi-Language Keyboard is a single file browser-based application 
			that enables you to type in several scripts to a user defined 
			textarea. Scripts included in the application are Bangla, Devanagari 
			(script used in several languages including Hindi, Nepali and Sanskrit), 
			Khmer, Lao, Malayalam, Sinhala, Tamil, Telugu, Thai and Thaana (right 
			to left script used to write in Dhivehi, national language of the Maldives). 
			The typed content can be cut and pasted to (as well as pasted from) 
			MS applications (Windows, Word, Notepad, Wordpad, etc.) , internet applications 
			( e.g. e-mail, textboxes in html documents, etc.) and other applicable 
			programs. It operates off-line thus an internet connection is not needed. 
			Requirements for satisfactory operation of the application is listed 
			in subsequent sections. </p>
			<br />
			<a class="head1" href="#bktop" name="sysrqmt">System Requirements</a>
			<ul>
				<li>Given that the application runs via an internet browser, a functioning 
				browser program is essential (internet connection is not required). 
				The functionality and the appearance of the program will vary with 
				the browser and version. Internet Explorer 8+ and comparable browsers 
				should enable the application to function as intended. Earlier versions 
				may produce none or partial functionality.</li>
				<li>System requirements in terms of the speed, memory etc. for the 
				application itself is insignificant compared to the requirement 
				of the browser program and language support (<a href="#LanSup">see 
				details</a>). </li>
				<li>The layout of the keyboard was arranged with a minimum screen 
				resolution of 1024 x 768. Display settings of a lower resolution 
				is likely to produce irregular results. In such a case consider 
				adjusting the browser window zoom feature and <a href="#wkspcsu">
				workspace setup</a> in the AppsTML Multilanguage Keyboard. </li>
			</ul>
			<a class="head2" href="#bktop" name="LanSup">Language Support</a>
			<p>In order to view complex scripts, the computer must have the appropriate 
			language support. Language support provided by versions of Windows operating 
			system is tabulated below:</p>
			<table id="OSlansup">
				<tr>
					<td>Windows 95+</td>
					<td>Thai</td>
				</tr>
				<tr>
					<td>Windows 2000+ </td>
					<td>Devenagari, Tamil</td>
				</tr>
				<tr>
					<td>Windows Xp +</td>
					<td>Telugu, Thaana</td>
				</tr>
				<tr>
					<td>Windows Xp Sp2+</td>
					<td>Bengali, Malayalam</td>
				</tr>
				<tr>
					<td>Windows Vista+</td>
					<td>Khmer, Lao, Sinhala</td>
				</tr>
			</table>

			<a class="head1" href="#bktop" name="OScrnkbrd">On-Screen Keyboard</a><p>
			Mouse click on a key (button) in the on-screen keyboard generates the character 
			in a particular location (cursor position or highlighted range) in the textarea.
			Other keys in the on-screen keyboard:</p>
			<ul>
				<li>Clear All – Deletes all content in a textarea.</li>
				<li>Backspace – Deletes the previous character (from position of the cursor) in the textarea. </li>
				<li>Space – Creates an empty space in the textarea.</li>
			</ul>
			<a class="head2" href="#bktop" name="kbrdarng">Arrangement of script 
			keys</a>
			<ul>
				<li>Characters in the first row are primarily symbols, general punctuations 
				and numerals. </li>
				<li>Subsequent rows contain vowels, consonants and characters that 
				are termed signs (or vowel signs) of the script. Signs are attached 
				to constants to produce vocalic variations.</li>
				<li>Certain scripts contain special characters (e.g. additional 
				numerals, script specific punctuations and symbols) that are located 
				in the bottom rows of the keyboard.</li>
			</ul>
			<p><a class="head2" href="#bktop" name="TpSinScr">Typing in complex 
			scripts:</a></p>
			<ul>
				<li>Vowels are typed in as a single character. Signs generally are 
				not conjoined to vowels.</li>
				<li>Consonants should be typed before the sign even if the sign 
				appears prior to the consonant in sequence of characters ( e.g. 
				യ then െ produces യെ).</li>
				<li>Certain signs keys produces varying character shapes 
				based on the attached consonant( eg. ක + ් → ක් whereas ම 
				+ ් → ම් )</li>
			</ul>
			<p>NB: AppsTML Multilanguage keyboard does not contain all the characters 
			used in each of the scripts. Those that do not appear could be inserted 
			into the textarea by changing the language setting of the physical keyboard 
			and pressing the appropriate keys.</p>
			<br />
			<p><a class="head1" href="#bktop" name="wkspcsu">Workspace setup</a></p>
			<p>AppsTML Multilanguage keyboard allows you to resize the main textarea 
			and change the font size in the textarea. Simply replace default values 
			and click "Ok" to change settings.</p>
			<ul>
				<li>Width – The default width of the text area is 1000px. It can 
				be increased (e.g. 1500px) or decreased (e.g. 500px) as an amount 
				of pixels or another appropriate unit of measurement (e.g. 500em, 
				50% etc.).</li>
				<li>Height – Change the height of the textarea from the default 
				(200px) by replacing the value to a desired height in an appropriate 
				unit of measurement (px, em).</li>
				<li>Font size – Is the size of the font in the textarea/s . It is 
				not the size of the font that would appear once pasted to a html 
				or text document (e.g. MS Word document). The option was created to 
				allow the user to view the content at a desired font size. </li>
				<li>Fixed keyboard and menu - Checking the selection box locks the 
				keyboard and menu in to a fixed position on the screen. </li>
				<li>Default button – Returns editable values back to default settings.
				</li>
			</ul>
			<br />
			<a class="head1" href="#bktop" name="mnftrs">Menu Features</a>
			<p>Undo/Redo – The undo button can retrieve content from upto 10 previous 
			actions. The redo button returns the content back to the original from 
			an undo step.</p>
